History

The first Pirate Party officially formed on New Years Day 2006 in Sweden. It's founder, Rick Falkvinge, established the party after he found that Swedish politicians were generally unresponsive to Sweden's debate over changes to copyright law in 2005.

Officially, there are pirate parties in over 40 countries.

The mayor of Prague, elected in 2018, was the first pirate ever to be elected to be the mayor of a major city.
